Second Floor Strategies President Wilder Alejandro Sanchez has published an analysis: " #Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Going Green(er) with #WindEnergy 🔋 " for Geopoliticalmonitor Intelligence Corp. - #GreenEnergy #Energy #Europe 🌍 While Wales remains dependent on fossil fuels, Cardiff has made significant improvements in the past decade to become greener and achieve net zero by 2050; an upcoming milestone is generating 70% of its electricity consumption from renewable energy by 2030. Thankfully, the country’s turbulent domestic politics – First Minister Vaughan Gething resigned in July — have not affected the government’s long-term strategy of becoming greener. https://lnkd.in/evsRFTS2

Second Floor Strategies President Wilder Alejandro Sanchez was interviewed for #GolosAmeriki (Voice of America - Russian service) on the Elections 🗳 in #Venezuela: "#Venezuela 🇻🇪 is in reality the new #Cuba 🇨🇺 " «Термин “мадуризмо” – это не только сам Николас Мадуро. Это и круг его сторонников: членов Национальной ассамблеи, министров, руководителей государственной нефтяной компании и военачальников Вооруженных сил, начиная с министра обороны Владимира Лопеса. Их материальное благополучие, их власть, от которых они не откажутся, зависят от присутствия Мадуро на президентском посту, – пояснил в интервью Русской службе «Голоса Америки» Вильдер Алехандро Санчес, глава компании Second Floor Strategies, политолог вашингтонского Центра стратегических и международных исследований (Wilder Alejandro Sanchez, CSIS). https://lnkd.in/gDfii7Vy

Second Floor Strategies Wilder Alejandro Sanchez has published a new analysis: "Do #USVs 🛳 Have a Future in #LatinAmerican and #Caribbean Navies?" for CIMSEC: Center for International Maritime Security #Unmannedsurfacevessels ( #USVs) are sailing full steam ahead, as evidenced by their (deadly) efficiency in attacks by the Ukrainian armed forces against Russian targets across the Black Sea. Though the security landscape in Europe is dramatically different from that of the Western Hemisphere, new technologies are always of interest to any armed service and USVs should be no exception. Whether USVs have a future in Latin America and the Caribbean merits deeper exploration. - #UnmannedSurfaceVessel #USV #LatinAmerica 🌎 #Caribbean https://lnkd.in/euHZe4-9
